>> i'm meteorologist sandyha patel, summer-like heat today. i'll let you know if it's sticking around for mother's day weekend. coming up. >> always live abc seven news starts right now. >> president joe biden wrapped up a two day fundraising trip to the bay area. biden left moffett field this afternoon to board air force one after attending two events on the peninsula, one at the home of a venture capitalist billionaire. biden is continuing his west coast fundraising trip with more campaign events in the pacific northwest. he landed in seattle as you see him deplaning air force one right there just about an hour ago for a downtown fundraiser. thanks for joining us. >> i'm julian glover and i'm larry beil. while in the bay area, the president traveled by helicopter from marina green in san francisco, spent the night in the city after arriving last night at marina green this morning, the sight of the commander in chief and his entourage, especially the helicopters the ospreys, caused quite the stir, delighting and surprising people. >> it was amazing. we had no idea it was going to happen, but

we were on a walk and we were here and saw all these helicopters come down and it's just incredible. i mean, it makes me teary eyed when you see it. >> yeah, it's just so impressive to see like the power of it and just to see actually on, you know, the marina green like, that's, you know, you never expect to see that. >> well, you saw the bystanders and well-wishers who came out to see the president. but mr. biden was also met by protesters in portola valley and palo alto. abc seven news reporter zach fuentes captured the sights and the sounds, plus the message people hoped he would hear. >> after a whirlwind trip to the bay area for president joe biden, the fifth just in the last year, the president's motorcade made its way to two campaign receptions in the south bay on friday, the first in portola valley at a fundraiser hosted by billionaire venture capitalist vinod khosla. the second fundraiser, hosted by former yahoo and google executive marissa mayer. >> we need actions from biden, which he could easily take. he could pick up the phone and things could change in a heartbeat. >> pro-palestinian demonstrators rallied outside both events and at one point blocked part of the

motorcade there, calling on biden to stop sending military aid to israel. they told us they're also working to reach his donors. >> there are an unprecedented amount of billionaires and millionaires and a lot of money is going to the democratic party. we want these donors to understand that we care about what's happening in palestine right now. but they weren't the only demonstrators lining the streets. >> some groups holding israeli flags wanted to thank biden for the work he's been doing, for i do not support the israeli government's decisions. >> i support israel's existence and israel's right to defend itself. but i think that right now the goal should be returning the hostages, and it looks like the best way to do that is the hostage deal. >> and you're happy with how the president has approached that? i am, despite the protests, experts say the fundraiser will be critical to his campaign. >> it's a cliche, but we are the nation's piggy back for these campaigns. there's a lot of people here with a lot of money and a lot of interest in who wins these elections, and as you saw, you had protesters on both

sides of the issue out here as it relates to biden's handling of the israel-hamas war. >> but you also had just simple onlookers looky loos out here with american flags waving, wanting to see the president's motorcade coming through. so a lot of different perspectives out here along the president's route here in the bay area right now in palo alto. zach fuentes abc seven news. >> ceasefire talks between israel and hamas are now fully stalled. israel says any deal would have had to allow them to continue their operation in rafah. the united nations is warning of a lack of fuel and food in gaza right now. this, as officials say, israel is targeting four hamas battalions in rafah. president biden paused a weapons shipment to israel over fears they'd be used in rafah. israel's prime minister, benjamin netanyahu, is insisting his relationship with president biden remains strong. >> we often had our agreements, but we've had our disagreements. >> this will result in children dying. these are deaths of children that can and must be prevented. >> the un general assembly today

called on the security council to reconsider palestinian membership in the united nations. well the protests were peaceful, but also loud at uc berkeley's law school graduation, which was interrupted several times by pro-palestinian chants. abc seven news reporter cornell bernard spoke with the new graduates about those protests. >> professor sayed has been teaching at berkeley law since 2009. >> pomp and protest at uc berkeley's law school commencement ceremony, dean irwin chemerinsky, interrupted several times by those in the crowd shouting pro-palestinian chants let us continue. at one point, chemerinsky steps away from the mic. the chants continued, but the ceremony went on and more than 600 grads got their diplomas. you are guests at our house last month, chemerinsky, who is jewish, was at the center of a free speech controversy when this video surfaced of the dean and his wife confronting a muslim law student who disrupted a private

event at their home to make a pro-palestinian speech. >> i, you know, respect, respect students, right to, you know, have their voice be heard, especially in, you know, public forum. this is a public university. many graduates say they expected the commencement disruptions at a university where protests and encampments over the middle east conflict are happening. >> what berkeley does best is protect the freedom of speech. i think we, all of our students are taught that freedom of first amendment is the most important thing. that is part of the american constitution, in my mind, everybody has their own opinion, and everybody really tried to work for justice during graduation. >> this controversial mobile billboard targeting law students who allegedly signed a proclamation banning speakers who support israel from appearing on campus. we have blurred their names. some universities across the country have canceled or altered graduation plans out of security concerns, but officials here at

uc berkeley say plans for saturday's big commencement will go on as usual. cal says it's prioritizing the ability of graduating students to participate in one of the most meaningful days of their life. as for friday's activism, dean chemerinsky said in a statement, we want to express our deepest admiration for our speakers, our graduates and their families, for their patience and understanding. i could not be more pleased that we were able to celebrate this significant moment and the significant achievements of our students, and i thought that here there's a great sensitivity to people's expression, and i think that's kind of a beautiful thing. >> and i think that's what berkeley stands for in berkeley. >> cornell, bernard, abc seven news. >> well, it was just absolutely gorgeous today. perfect if you were attending a graduation. >> absolutely. and it's going to stay that way and it's going to stay warm inland tonight. abc seven news meteorologist here. now with a look at the temperatures and moms are going to be happy this weekend. >> oh absolutely. larry and julian we really have some lovely weather ahead. let me show you some live pictures from

our tower cameras. it's still bright and sunny. sunny from all of those views. it got hot today as we'd expected. inland areas in the 90s like concord, fairfield, 81, in oakland, 78. in the city, 63, in half moon bay, 88, in santa rosa. so it was cooler along the coast and around the bay. temperatures right now, still in the 80s and 90s for our warmest spots. danville, 87, right now, 90, in brentwood. as we take a look at the northern portion of our viewing area, 91 in fairfield, 79 in santa rosa. so if you're stepping out for friday night plans inland at 7:00 in the 80s, coming down to the 70s around the bay from the upper 60s to the upper 50s late tonight and some fog redeveloping by 7 p.m. we are talking about upper 50s at our beaches, dropping off into the low 50s. later on tonight, i'll be back with the mother's day forecast coming right up, larry. >> all right, see you in a few minutes. andrea. new details now, the department of justice wants the man who broke into speaker emerita nancy pelosi's home and attacked her husband, paul, with a hammer to spend 40 years in prison. that is the

recommendation from the doj and the federal case against david depape. he's scheduled to be sentenced next week. depape was convicted of breaking into the pelosi, san francisco home back in october of 2022 and attacking the former house speaker's husband with a hammer. paul pelosi suffered some severe injuries, including a fractured skull. nancy pelosi was not home at the time. the doj is also asking for the court to classify depapes crimes as an act of terrorism. depape is also facing a state trial on charges including attempted murder, assault and more. that trial is set to begin after the federal trial concludes in oakland's new police chief set to start his new job on monday. and he's not going to be the only new face on the force. abc7 news reporter anser hassan met with a few of the 12 new officer cadets that graduated into the department this morning. >> i proudly present to you the graduates of the 1/93 base. >> under the eye of oakland's incoming police chief, the graduates of oakland police department's 193rd academy are ready to take their ranks.

>> it's been a long journey, but now i can officially say i'm an officer, moreno officer kevin molina says he got into law enforcement because he sees it as a pathway to helping the community. we want to be the ones to be out there helping in whatever way i can, even if it's just a simple conversation, a simple love, i can make that difference in someone's life. >> officer manveer sandhu is one of three females in this graduating class. she's a punjabi sikh. for her, this is also about representation. >> that's one of the differences i wanted to make, to kind of open up that field to uh- females from my community, for my culture as well. i feel like it's definitely exciting and a i'm excited to go on the new path. >> and muhammad zanoni. >> these graduates underwent six months of grueling training and academics during that time in the academy. two oakland police officers died from injuries suffered in the line of duty. >> no one can take away from you when you have just accomplished. however, the work has just

begun. this profession is not easy. >> it's hard, officer molina admits. that was a hard reality to face. >> i'm not going to lie, i feel a little fear because that is a reality. i could go out there in my very first day on patrol and my life could be taken, but that's the choice i'm making, and it's actually a choice that makes me want to do it more, because i'm willing to put my life on the line to help anyone i can. if that means that they could go back home to their families for christmas. >> in oakland, anser hassan, abc7 news. >> we have a warning from the fbi now. pride events could be targeted by terrorist terrorists this year. the warning comes after isis reportedly called on followers to conduct attacks on soft targets. the fbi says that could include large lgbtq events associated with june pride month. the agency is asking the public to report threats. june 12th is the anniversary of the pulse nightclub shooting, where eight years ago, 49 people were

killed inside of that nightclub. the gunman had sworn his allegiance to isis. target shoppers may have a harder time this year, finding pride merchandise inside of the stores. the retailer says it's limiting the number of locations that will sell lgbtq themed merchandise. a boycott last year by conservative activists upset at pride merchandise in stores. it hurt target sales. the company says it will still offer all of its pride apparel and merchandise. you just have to go online to buy it. in a statement , target says it will, quote, continue to support lgbtq plus organizations year round, including human rights campaign, family equality and more. >> coming up next, a major milestone for a multi-billion dollar project that will protect the bay area during both droughts and earthquakes. >> also ahead, we have to keep this not just for beauty, not for the species, but for the ability to try to help this this earth protecting the planet. >> it is a dangerous fight for

one local nonprofit, but they're taking it on to help build a better

for water to be diverted out and around the dam. it's nearly complete. abc seven news south bay reporter dustin dorsey got a rare look inside that tunnel. >> let's take a walk under anderson dam. construction is 80% complete for this giant water release tunnel. it's part of an even bigger upgrade to make santa clara county's biggest reservoir safer and more efficient.

>> it's a much larger amount of water that will be able to release that. we would only have to do in an emergency, such as an earthquake or another, you know, flood event or something like that. a large storm where we could quickly lower the reservoir if needed. if this tunnel looks like it goes on forever, that's because it kind of does. >> it will be 1700 feet long with a 20 foot diameter when completed, and that's going to make a major difference when trying to move water from the dam. the current pipe is just too small, and during last year's storms, water couldn't release fast enough. the reservoir hit 60% capacity, dangerously close to the current 68% limit for seismic safety. >> but now about 15 times more water can be released. yeah, so right now we can do about 400 cubic feet per second, which is just under about 3000 gallons per second. it will be up to do 6000 cubic feet per second, or about 45,000 gallons in this new building outside of the tunnel will slow the energy of all that water as it flows into the coyote creek. >> this should dramatically reduce flooding like we saw in

east san jose seven years ago. if this project had been in place in 2017, we would not have seen the flooding we did there. >> this project is so important and so big that it reaches all the way into alviso and phase one is almost done. >> the next step will be using specialized drilling equipment to install the final 350ft of pipe, which will complete this very important tunnel. >> what we're really celebrating here is a milestone that gets us closer to a completed project, but also creates a high level of safety. in the interim, making sure that communities that are living along this creek aren't negatively impacted as the construction is going forward by next year. >> this tunnel will be diverting water around the dam and out of the reservoir, so the seven year seismic retrofit can officially begin in morgan hill. dustin dorsey, abc seven news. >> a bay area nonprofit is taking on dangerous, a dangerous fight to help protect the planet. soon, you'll be able to see their work firsthand. abc seven news reporter luz pena has this first look. >> it might look like the front

lines of a war zone, but these patrols are fighting a different kind of battle. with the help of a bay area nonprofit, they're guarding some of the most environmentally valuable sites in the world. taking on poachers, loggers, illegal miners, and in some cases, organized crime. >> we're up against syndicates, organized crime. in many, many of the countries, anytime there's ivory, gold. >> jeff morgan is a former silicon valley executive and founder of a unique bay area based nonprofit called global conservation. the group's mission is to train and outfit park rangers in countries around the world, including this group that protects the mirador national park in guatemala. it's home to mayan ruins and more than a million acres of tropical forests. global conservation helps supply them with high tech tools like trail cameras, satellite monitors and facial recognition software so that they can run the park, see where all the rangers are, see where the threats are, respond to the

threats in an organized way, and now their work is about to be seen by viewers here in the u.s. as abc news correspondent bob woodruff embedded with the patrols for a series of reports to air later this summer on abc news live and hulu. >> down in ecuador to try to track down exactly how these illegal gold mining is being done. we went down in cambodia on patrol inside the forests where that two has been hard to stop in terms of those that are cutting down the trees. >> he hopes that by spotlighting the dangerous work these stories will also increase global support for protecting some of the most pristine habitats on the planet. >> we have to keep this not just for beauty, not for the species, but for the ability to try to help this this earth. >> in san francisco, luz pena abc seven news in last night, we're hearing the bob woodruff helped moderate a panel at the filoli mansion in woodside. >> the goal was all about reaching out to environmental donors to help create and support park protection programs

all across the world, and bob does a great job in everything that he does. he does, and this project is no exception, for sure. yeah. >> you ready for the mother's day forecast? i'm ready for this weekend forecast. >> it's been so nice around here. sandy i hope this does not end anytime soon. >> well, i tell you what, julian and larry, we're going to continue with the theme of what we started with the last couple of days for the start of your weekend, and then it's going to change. let me show you a live picture right now from our mount tam cam. just a gorgeous view. a good weekend to go out for a hike, take mom out for mother's day, taking a look at the winds. they are onshore now 21 miles an hour in san francisco. that has started the cooling process along the coast today. inland areas were still hot into the 90s. now for mother's day, it's going to be cooler in all locations, upper 50s to the upper 80s. there will be a combination of fog and sun around, so overall gorgeous weather for any of your outdoor activities with mom. looking at live doppler seven, we do have

some fog right around the monterey bay. it's working its way up and eventually we will see it overnight. going into tomorrow morning. as we take a look at the wider perspective here, there have been a few scattered showers right over the sierra, all in association with an area of low pressure that is spinning nearby. but high pressure has been in control of our weather today, which is why we saw temperatures soar anywhere between 13 to 17 degrees above average for this time of year. nothing but sunshine from our golden gate bridge cameras. san francisco 68 degrees at is 71, in oakland. still really pleasantly warm. san jose redwood city in the 80s. half moon bay, 59 degrees from our east bay hills. camera. we are looking towards mount diablo and it is clear there 70s from santa rosa to petaluma, napa still almost 90 degrees right now in concord livermore you're at 84 degrees kgo roof cam. it is breezy outside tomorrow, another hot day inland overnight. some fog at the coast and it is going to be nice for mother's day. but cooler for all

areas. sun and fog. so we start out tonight with some warm weather. friday night plans at 7:00. you've got 80s inland for the warmest locations, but along the coast in the 50s, so i would grab an extra layer. if you're going to be near the coast. 9:00 we're looking at cool conditions at the beaches still warm inland, and then tomorrow morning that fog is closing in along the coastline. tomorrow afternoon, the warmth builds away from the beaches. we'll be back into the 90s for our hot spots inland 60s right near the coast. first thing tomorrow morning. anywhere from the upper 40s to the low 60s. with that fog near the coast. and then tomorrow afternoon, a nice variety for everyone. 86 degrees in san jose in the south bay, 87 in los gatos on the peninsula. you're looking at temperatures still above average for this time of year 81 in palo alto, 61 in half moon bay, downtown san francisco, 69 degrees a mix of sun and fog along the coast. north bay 83, in san rafael, 88 in santa rosa heading into the east bay 76, oakland 84. for you

in castro valley, you feel that heat inland. 92 in fairfield. in brentwood, 88, in livermore. the accuweather seven day forecast. it's going to be a wide range of temperatures almost summerlike tomorrow. again, pleasant for mom's cooler, but still really nice. and then we'll drop the temperatures down some more on monday before they recover. tuesday on for a few days and then back down. so really nice looking weather. larry and julian. >> lovely. >> yes, perfect for mother's day brunch on sunday. >> anything you have planned with mom? >> all right. thank you sandra. all right. >> for a quarter of a century, you could buy a planet fitness membership for just a super thin, flexible patch with maximum otc strength lidocaine that contours to the body to relieve pain right where it hurts. and did we mention, it really, really sticks? salonpas, it's good medicine. i'm franklin graham. the world seems to be engulfed with hate. we see it on our college campuses, and we see it across the borders.

jesus christ understands hate. the world, at that time, hated him, and they still hate him today, but, you see, he came on a rescue mission to save us from our sin. he died and shed his blood on a cross for our sins. he was buried, but god raised him to life. and if we're willing to put our faith and trust in jesus christ, god will forgive us of our sins, and he will heal our hearts. and the problem we have today is a heart problem. only god can change the human heart, and take that hate and fill it with his love. if you've never invited christ into your heart, pray this prayer with me right now. just say, god, i'm a sinner. i'm sorry, forgive me. i believe jesus is your son. i want to trust him right now as my savior. and i pray this in jesus' name. if you prayed that prayer, call that number right now that's on the screen. we have someone who'd like to speak with you, and pray with you. god bless you!

125 points, closing at 39,512. the nasdaq edged down by five points. the s&p 500 rose about eight to finish a third straight winning week following its mostly sluggish performance in april. gas prices seem to finally have hit a plateau. california's average is down to 530 a gallon, according to triple a san francisco drivers paying 552. now that is down about $0.06 in a week. >> fast food prices are skyrocketing and sales are slipping as a result. finance buzz found that the price of a quarter pounder at mcdonald's

has more than doubled in the past decade, and now mcdonald's is trying to go back to its roots. bloomberg news says it's going to introduce a $5 meal deal to try to lure customers back after you've had the burger, maybe go to the gym. planet fitness, raising its membership fee for the first time in 26 years, the classic membership is jumping 50. still pretty reasonable. $10 to $15 a month starting this summer. planet fitness is the largest gym chain in the u.s, which has drawn in and kept members with its cheap pricing, even if members don't actually work out too often. the higher tier black card membership will remain the same. that's $25. >> coming up next here on abc seven news at six, a homeless woman in san francisco who has housing. so why is she still on the streets? why does it matter if i come out here? >> we look into the issue becaus

reporter lyanne melendez discovered there are some people that enjoy both having a roof over their head, a home, a place to stay. but also being on the streets too. right. >> and i think, you know, many believe that housing is the end all to the homelessness issue. and it's so much more complex than that, really complex. there are some people who have been given housing who come back to occupying space on the city streets. an example of that is a woman by the name of victoria solomon. now, for the past two months, we have been following her as she moves between two neighborhoods. victoria solomon has achieved a bit of notoriety in san francisco's castro district for years. unhoused, according to supervisor rafael mandelman office, solomon was given housing and lives in an sro in the tenderloin district. but a few neighbors and merchants complained after she started setting up a tent again in the castro on different days of the week. >> they want to be on the streets, even if the city provides services to them. they

already get used to be with their own freedom for a while, solomon was even parking her car in the castro district, a 2008 bmw. >> we ran the plates and confirmed that it was registered to a victoria solomon. neighbors started taking pictures of solomon and her friends hanging out in the car. a few weeks ago, the city towed an impounded the vehicle after it was no longer running. to be clear, to our knowledge, there is nothing illegal with what she has been doing except that some say it defies logic. when you give someone a place to live and they continue to occupy a public sidewalk, leaving trash behind, i am frustrated when we do not allow ourselves to address unsafe conditions on sidewalks. >> that's not okay. that's what we have to change. >> in late march, we received this picture from a neighbor showing solomon sitting on the sidewalk. so after i received that photo, i decided to come down to the castro to see if i

can find her. she wasn't hard to find. >> i didn't matter if i come out here like it really doesn't matter. i don't understand why my personal life is what i'm doing after and i wish you. >> can you stop supporting me? >> there are others who do the same. the city is well aware. in fact, the department of emergency management told us outreach teams are on the streets every day sheltering people, every night and moving people out of homelessness every day. despite this effort, 10% of the people healthy streets operation center encounters self-report. they are already housed or sheltered. zachary paget is one of them. do you understand that some people get very upset by watching all of this out on the street? yeah, and a home has been given to you, right? >> i mean, i get that this is my family. this is my friends. i don't have any family out here. i come from oregon and uh- uh- who i was on the streets with.

>> you know, zack, a recovering fentanyl user, told us his friends stay clear of fentanyl and they make sure he does, too. lydia branston, a community organizer, says there's a component to this homeless crisis that people often disregard, which is that as social beings, we need companionship in a sense of community. >> when people get housing, they don't leave their community necessarily. they keep going back to their community, and it takes a while to have that transition to a new community and a new area. >> but some questioned the fairness of having a place to live while taking up space on the sidewalks. every person who lives in supportive housing contributes 30% of what they receive towards rent. the city fills in the gap. 60% of the department of homelessness and supportive housing $700 million budget goes towards housing. >> we are subsidizing you know, north of 10,000 units in in san francisco that are forever homes

for folks where they are paying subsidized rent and we're providing the subsidy. i think that's good. but we also need to do something about making sure that folks can use our public spaces. >> one solution may be to create more community drop in centers, like this one at the gubbio project, where people stay in community. >> this is a place where people can come and hang out, and those places are few and far between. >> as we know, the courts have said that san francisco cannot remove a homeless person from the sidewalk unless they are offered available shelter. now this is a tricky situation because solomon is no longer unhoused, and that's why supervisor mandelman is so frustrated because he says the city, the board, are not addressing the issue of unsafe conditions on our sidewalks. so, i mean, a lot of people doing this, you know, a lot more than we thought. >> and about 10% of people that this organization is coming in contact with, they do have and they say we absolutely do.

>> but but, you know, they're very candid about it. and they say we need to socialize. and, you know, i mean, the one guy was saying, well, my friends keep me away from fentanyl. so that's a good thing. so yeah, but in the end, the taxpayer, you're paying for their housing and you're paying to try to get, which is what mandelman said. >> double dip. all right. the same time. >> all right. appreciate it. >> governor newsom's revised may budget calls for some belt tightening across the state, but no new taxes involved. newsom says the deficit grew by $7 billion above his $38 billion projection back in january. but thanks to $17 billion in cuts and other actions he and lawmakers have already made. the deficit now stands at $27.6 billion. the governor says despite the adjustments in his proposal, he believes the state's values are, quote, foundationally intact. >> if we move along the blueprint we're putting forward, we'll be back where we need to be and that is back in the black

uh- we'll be back on our feet as it relates to this budget, and we'll continue to do nation leading work across the spectrum. >> so here are the major takeaways from newsom's $288 billion budget plan. it proposes funding cuts to some 260 different state programs, including the jobs first and calworks programs. it cuts 10,000 vacant state jobs and eliminates $2 billion in broadband expansion, as well as 500 million that would have improved water storage. now the governor's proposed budget also calls for the elimination of land lines in the state government to help cut costs. right now, land lines appear safe for california residents at this time. today, the state public utilities commission issued a proposal to reject at&t s request to withdraw as what they call the carrier of last resort. commissioners got an earful from the public at their march meeting when at&t complained that the service was just too expensive to maintain for so few customers. a vote on this is expected next month.

trucks. they were all import sedans, according to a report from the national insurance crime bureau, two hyundai models and one kia model made up the three most stolen vehicles in 2023. the number one stolen car was the hyundai elantra elantra, followed by the hyundai sonata and the kia optima. now, vehicle thefts overall in america rose 1% last year from the year before. the numbers in the nicb report are not adjusted for the total number of a given model on the road, so some of the vehicles may be more commonly stolen just because there are more of them out there. >> all right. this was day 15 of donald trump's criminal trial. jurors this week heard from stormy daniels on monday. they will likely hear from michael cohen, mr. trump's former lawyer and fixer, claims that the former president reimbursed him for the alleged hush money payments to stormy daniels. abc news reporter morgan norwood in

new york with the latest. >> after days of intense testimony from adult film actress stormy daniels, prosecutors zeroing in on phone and financial records as they laid the groundwork for jurors to hear from michael cohen, their star witness. abc's aaron katersky inside the courtroom, where prosecutors called several custodial witnesses today. >> the testimony did take a marked turn after the dramatic testimony offered by stormy daniels. the focus returned to the records at the heart of the case. we heard phone logs, talked about tweets, text messages and other records that that prosecutors introduced to the jury through these custodial witnesses, all of them are likely to come up when cohen testifies next week. >> cohen, trump's former lawyer and fixer, made the $130,000 payment to stormy daniels that sits at the center of this case, all in order to buy her silence about an alleged affair. her testimony this week is a critical building block for prosecutors, who are trying to prove trump and his allies engaged in an elaborate scheme

to suppress damaging information to influence the 2016 presidential race. trump has denied the affair and any wrongdoing. during testimony. trump's former aide madeleine westerhout said trump was very upset when a 2018 wall street journal report revealed the hush money payment to daniels, adding my understanding is that he knew it would be hurtful to his campaign. it was an important moment for the defense as they seek to elicit testimony, lining up with what they described as trump's motive to suppress negative stories in order to protect his family. the judge ending the day with a rebuke of michael cohen for making public comments about the trial ahead of his testimony, the defense suggesting the judge imposed a limited gag order similar to former president trump's. but he stopped short of issuing an official mandate. >> what the judge did was amazing, actually. it was amazing. everybody can say whatever they want, they can say whatever they want, but i'm not allowed to say anything about anybody. >> and prosecutors say they could rest their case at the end of next week. and in another

sign of how quickly this case is moving along, the judge asked both sides to submit questions for the jury charge. i'm morgan norwood, abc news, new york. >> looking at the weekend, it is going to be a warm one out there. sandhya has the forecast for mother's day up next. >> plus a viewing guide to the northern

the us navy is buying old passenger planes to keep the government functioning in the event of a nuclear attack. the boeing 747 were used by korean air for commercial travel. they'll be retrofitted to create a fleet of what they're calling nuclear doomsday planes. these planes will have a command and control center that's very similar to air force one. more importantly, the claim is they'll be able to withstand the burst of energy released by a nuclear explosion. let's hope the planes never have to get used. uh- the latest in a storied legacy. the much anticipated kingdom of the planet of the apes. now in theaters. alicia vitarelli from our sister station in philadelphia introducing you to two of the stars. and they went through extensive training to learn to embody the apes made so famous by this franchise. what a

wonderful day. >> what a wonderful day. >> what a wonderful day. >> i feel like you, you cannot shake this. you are one and the same now. >> we really can't. yeah yeah, the characters sneak in a lot, especially when we see each other. >> yeah, the apes greet each other before the humans do. >> yeah, the apes come out immediately. >> becoming apes was an acquired art for owen teague and his on screen nemesis, kevin durand. >> i went to a sanctuary in florida, spent a week with chimpanzees, and then came to australia, and we did six weeks of ape school. >> the elders did not tell us everything. >> teague plays the young hero noah. yeah durand is his fierce foe. proximus caesar. so i understand that's actually how you met you guys met as apes? >> yes, we did. >> i'm not ready to ape in front of all these people yet. and

noah keeps coming closer and closer, and he's putting his hand out. he kind of gave me the ticket to ride. you kind of sit here, come and play, and then all of a sudden it's fun. yeah >> i'm like, walked off into the trees and had a 45 minute long improvization where we just, like, discovered so much about these two characters and their relationship stuff that ended up in the movie. yeah. >> have a wonderful day. >> you too. >> oh, very good. wow. >> very good. thumbs up. >> thumbs up indeed. that was alicia vitarelli reporting. disney is the parent company of 20th century studios, which made kingdom of the planet of the apes, as well as abc seven. >> a powerful solar storm could make the northern lights visible here in northern northern california. normally they're only seen near the north pole, but this storm is so strong that the aurora could extend over much of a larger area. scientists say they are watching

this storm very closely for other reasons, too. the particles from this event could interrupt cell phone service, tv transmissions and cause power outages in some areas. >> we're in a world really dependent on satellites and space, like the gps system and on a power grid that's quite sensitive. so that's why the noaa national oceanic and atmospheric administration monitors the sun and gives us warnings. >> professor andrew fraknoi says the best chance of seeing the aurora is tomorrow night. darker areas away from the city lights are best as the light will be very faint. so pull out that iphone and see what you can get. >> fog and clouds permitting. >> yeah, exactly. >> we always got something against us here in the bay area. we check in now for a look at the forecast with sandhya. >> yeah, as long as you get away from the coast, i think you'll have good viewing. and away from the lights. larry and julian, let's take a look at the forecast. so northern california has the best chance here in california, but it could be visible as far south as southern

california. 1 to 4 a.m. is your best time for viewing. move away from the bright lights. use your long exposure camera. by the way, a noaa had observed extreme g5 geomagnetic conditions, but now they're raising the k index to seven or greater, so we may actually get lucky on live doppler seven. we do have some fog around the monterey bay tomorrow. it reestablishes along our coastline. temperatures in the 60s coast, but still hot inland in the 90s, where the sun will be shining for mother's day. temperatures do back off 80s inland 50s coast side and a look at the accuweather seven day forecast features. nice weather for all the moms out there. the cooling continues to start the workweek, but temperatures do come back up tuesday and wednesday. close to 90 once again by midweek. julian. larry, we like it. >> yes thank you sandra. >> all right chris alvarez here with sports. some new faces for the red and gold. >> i wonder if the coaches over the 40 niners do the planet of the apes. >> welcome to rookie minicamp. yeah, that's very intimidating.

very scary, the niners hit the field for rookie minicamp, and sorensen sets the standard. the new defensive coordinator describes why that defense is going to have high expectations. sports is a super thin, flexible patch with maximum otc strength lidocaine that contours to the body to relieve pain right where it hurts. and did we mention, it really, really sticks? salonpas, it's good medicine.

that'll set the roadmap for the journey towards super bowl 59 in new orleans. but today the niners starting rookie minicamp and our first look a real look at defensive coordinator nick sorensen right there. the longtime 40 niners assistant takes over for steve wilks, who was fired after just one season. sorensen wasn't a very familiar name outside the organization. he's promoted. a few months ago, but clearly has the respect of the players and other coaches on the team as the niners try to win that elusive sixth lombardi trophy. they haven't won since the 94 season. sorensen, trying to make that transition as seamless as possible. >> i want him to see that we're still the standard of what we've always been an attacking defense that plays fast, we play violent, we play with speed and we finish. we all know the standard here and you know, we all want to win. we all want to play great defense and that's the expectation. but i have that on myself. our coaches do our players do what is said. i'm not really worried about it. i just i just know what we want to get done and what i want to get done. so regardless of what's

said good or bad, i just just work and go to the next day and work and then go the next day and then work and try and provide our players with the best information and, you know, challenge them to be the best that they can be, and then everything will be just fine. >> yeah. somebody hit somebody. all right. our first look at the 40 niners first round draft pick. there he is ricky pearsall number 14. the wide receiver is taken 31st overall in last month's draft. still hasn't officially signed. so he wasn't able to talk to the media yet. now, you might recognize this guy, tariq owens, son of u.s. hall of famer terrell owens. tariq undrafted and is rocky number 84. another wide receiver jacob cowan right there 83 out of arizona might make the team as a punt and kick return specialist. get this the niners haven't had a punt return touchdown since 2011. cowan trying to in trying to change that this season this moment for me is just continuing to get better at that aspect of my game is, you know, catching and getting comfortable and, you know, just trying to get the ball down the field and trying to go score a touchdown. >> i heard that over a decade here that it hasn't been accomplished yet. so that's

definitely one of my goals this year. >> one day after firing head coach frank vogel, the phoenix suns are closing in on their next leader, espn reports the suns are set to hire former milwaukee bucks head coach mike budenholzer, coach budde led the bucks to an nba title over the suns back in 2021, just a couple seasons ago. he's set to be phoenix's third coach in as many seasons. the suns, coming off a disappointing first round sweep to what is now very good minnesota timberwolves team. we're all seeing that nba playoffs tonight, former warrior donte divincenzo. the knicks looking for a30 series lead at indiana. tyrese haliburton doing all he can to prevent that. 23 points in the first half. caitlin clark makes her home in indiana. now she loves it. pacers up five at the half. divincenzo a career high 17 in the third. look at dante hoop and the foul i think that was obi toppin. the fouled him larry. he finished with 35 as new york leads by five after three 20s to go. broken possession andrew nembhard throw it up and oh he beat the shot clock. and that was basically the game winner. pacers win 111 106. their first win in the

series two one series. now with game four sunday here on abc seven and the nba draft lottery is sunday. larry i think what is it the warriors, if they have a top four pick, they're secured. but if they don't it goes to what? portland. it goes to portland. >> yeah i just checked obi toppin stats your friend two two points but he's been good in this series. he has been very. but i do like the parting shot. by the way we have celtics. cavs tomorrow game three of that series at 530. all right. >> and tonight on abc seven at eight it's jeopardy masters followed by 2020. then you'll want to stick with us for abc seven news at 11. and that'll do it for this edition of abc seven news i'm julian glover i'm larry biel for sandhya patel chris alvarez. >> all of us here at abc seven news. have a good night. i'm going to check obi's numbers again just to make sure this can't be right. two points. what are we talking about. oh look at the sea lions. they're asleep. we put them to sleep. okay? >> yeah. wake up for the 11th. >> yeah. wake up for
